Why is it so hard for women to get real answers about their health? In this episode of Because I Love You, host Bria Jones sits down with Corinne Foxx to have an unfiltered conversation about navigating women’s healthcare in a system that constantly dismisses, misdiagnoses, and gaslights us.

From painful symptoms being brushed off as "normal" to doctors blaming everything on stress, we’re breaking down the real struggles women face when trying to advocate for their own bodies. Corinne shares her personal experiences, the hard lessons she’s learned, and why self-advocacy is non-negotiable when it comes to your health.

If you’ve ever felt ignored, misunderstood, or straight-up crazy for knowing something was wrong—this episode is for you. It’s time to stop apologizing for demanding the care you deserve. Press play and let’s talk about it.

What do you do when you find out your entire family history isn’t what you thought? In this episode, I sit down with my dad, Carlos Jones who discovered later in life that the man he called “dad” wasn’t actually his biological father. No DNA test, no big reveal—just a truth that had been hidden for decades.

We get into the shock, the betrayal, and the mental gymnastics of rewriting your identity as an adult. How do you process something like this? Can you ever fully forgive? And what happens when the truth forces you to see your past—and your parents—in a whole new light?

This one’s personal, raw, and a reality check for anyone who thinks they know everything about where they come from. Press play—because sometimes, the truth finds you whether you’re ready or not.

We’re diving deep into the growing epidemic of friendship flakiness that’s sweeping through Millennials and Gen Z. Why is it that we struggle to commit, keep plans, and show up for each other in the way previous generations did?

To unpack this, we’re joined by Cindy Oke from the *C Something, Say Something Pod* to explore how our fast-paced lives, digital distractions, and evolving social dynamics are changing the way we navigate friendships. From last-minute cancellations to the rise of "ghosting," we're tackling the uncomfortable truth behind why it's become so hard to keep promises—and why showing up feels like such a challenge for our generation.

Is it social anxiety? Is it the pressure of constant connectivity? Or is it just the evolution of friendship in the age of convenience? Tune in for a no-holds-barred conversation about commitment, expectations, and what it really means to be there for the people you care about.

If you’ve ever felt the sting of a friend bailing on you—or been the one doing the bailing—this episode is for you. Get ready to hear some hard truths, and maybe, just maybe, find some solutions for how we can all start showing up a little more.
